Pic of inside case if it helps - http://

Well, I bought some new components and a new case, moved mb to new case and installed new ssd along with old hdd. Before the new case, the new components were working fine so I do not think they are relevant.

Anyways, my bios was not recognizing primary hdd. I tried switching to ide and to ach and raid, nothing worked. The ssd did show but eventually even that stopped showing up. The cd drive always has and still does show.

So I boughr 8gb new memory, new motherboard. Those didnt work, another new hdd, didnt work, went from a 550 psu to a brand new 750 and no drive is recognized. So I booted to a fresh wibdows 7 install but when it asks where to install it, there is no drive to put it on.

I have used new cables, replaced hdd, used other working hdds, new psu, new mb, ended up building an entirely new system. The obly thing not new is the cpu which is 1 month old and works great. I am completely dumbfounded
